The development of ammonia-methane (NH3-CH4) combustion as a hydrogen-carrier energy source faces major challenges such as significant NOx emissions, hindering its practical implementation. This paper examines how ethanol (C2H6O) and…
In the transportation sector, ammonia used as a power source plays a significant role in the scenario of carbon neutralization. However, the engine-out emissions correlations of ammonia-diesel dual-fuel (DF) engines are still unclear,…
The necessity to reduce greenhouse gas emissions has prompted the search for carbon-free fuel alternatives. One such carbon-free fuel source that can be used for power generation in a gas turbine-based system is ammonia. Ammonia combustion…
We explore the pressure dependence of a set of properties of simple monohydric alcohols, namely of methanol, ethanol and 1-propanol, by using isobaric-isothermal molecular dynamics computer simulations. A recently proposed united atom,…
As crucial additives and intermediate, alcohols, ethers, and aldehydes play a significant role in the combustion process. However, the chemistry of NOXhydrocarbon interactions and the rate rules governing these interactions remain largely…
A novel method for analyzing counterflow diffusion flames, inspired by Zurada's sensitivity approach for neural networks, is proposed to identify critical species influencing the heat release rate in combustion. By further analyzing…
The conventional ways of processing natural gas into more efficient and economical fuels usually either have low conversion rate or low energy efficiency. In this work, a new approach of methane liquefaction is proposed. Instead of direct…
Experimental and computational investigations are carried out to elucidate the influence of ethanol addition on n-heptane auto-ignition in counterflows. An axisymmetric stream of air, temperature gradually increased, is directed onto the…
We explore the dependence of a wide set of properties of monohydric alcohols on temperature by using the isobaric-isothermal molecular dynamics computer simulations. Namely, methanol (MeOH), ethanol (EtOH) and 1-propanol (PrOH) alcohols are…
At low concentrations of methanol in ethanol-methanol binary system, the molecular interactions are seen to be uniquely complex. It is observed that the ethanol aggregates are not strictly hydrogen-bonded complexes; dispersion forces also…
We have performed experimental investigations of methanol formation via the reactions of low energy $CH_{3}^{+}$ ions with an amorphous solid water (ASW) surface around 10 K. A newly developed experimental apparatus enabled irradiation of…
The catalytic activities of the atomic Y-, Ru-, At-, In-, Pd-, Ag-, Pt-, and Os- ions have been investigated theoretically using the atomic Au- ion as the benchmark for the selective partial oxidation of methane to methanol without CO2…
Methanol-water liquid mixtures have been investigated by high-energy synchrotron X-ray and neutron diffraction at low temperatures. We are thus able to report the first complete sets of both X-ray and neutron weighted total scattering…
Ethanol is a common protein crystallization agent, precipitant, and denaturant, but also alters the dielectric properties of solutions. While ethanol-induced unfolding is largely ascribed to its hydrophobic parts, its effect on protein…
Pd-based anodes for alcohol oxidation suffer from surface poisoning and sluggish kinetics. Here, we developed Pd-Nb2O5/C nanocomposites to improve ethanol electrooxidation kinetics and CO tolerance in alkaline media. Orthorhombic Nb2O5…
Design and operation of advanced reactors such as fuel reformers require reliable micro-kinetic models that capture the dynamics of the reaction. The negative temperature coefficient phenomenon causes a reduction in mixture temperature for…
Alcohols and aldehydes represent two key classes of interstellar complex organic molecules (COMs). This work seeks to better understand their possible chemical connections, with a focus on such molecules in the sources of the star-forming…
Improving the synthetic methanol production efficiency is essential for adopting carbon-neutral methanol technologies. In the present computational fluid dynamics (CFD) study, we investigate synthetic methanol (CH$_3$OH) production in a…
Ammonia (NH3) is a zero-carbon fuel that has been receiving increasing attention for power generation and even transportation. Compared to H2, NH3's volumetric energy density is higher, is not as explosive, and has well established…
Ammonia poses significant environmental challenges due to its role in water pollution, contributing to eutrophication and several detrimental environmental and ecological issues. Addressing the efficient removal or conversion of ammonia is,…
